Sohee Williams, MD
Christina Berge, LPN
Obstetrics, Gynecology & Infertility
Dr. Sohee Williams grew up in the Emerald Valley and joined Pacific Women’s Center in 2013. She graduated from South Eugene High School and continued her education at the University of Oregon. She completed a degree in biology and a minor in biochemistry before completing medical school at Oregon Health and Science University where she met her husband.
Together, they moved to the Midwest for residency at the University of Kansas when they decided that there was no place like home. Dr. Williams happily moved back to Eugene after training where she put down roots and grew both her family and her practice – two things that brings her immense joy and compassion. They both remind her daily of the importance of the human experience, and joys big and small.
Dr. Williams has interests in family planning, contraception, low and high-risk obstetrics, infertility, general gynecology, and minimally invasive surgery. She comes trained in the Intuitive Da Vinci Robotics surgical technique. She has an interest in the education and guidance of the adolescent and young-adult patient as they transition to take ownership of their healthcare knowledge and choices. She is looking forward to providing personalized one on one care and following her patients through the different periods of their lives from adolescence to menopause and beyond.
Little Known Fact: Dr. Williams grew up splitting her time between Eugene and South Korea – she ping ponged her way across the Pacific Ocean multiple times a year until medical school.
